In this paper two kernel-based nonparametric estimators are proposed for estimating the components of an additive quantile regression model. The first estimator is a computationally convenient approach which can be viewed as a viable alternative to the method of De Gooijer and Zerom (2003). By...

We propose a hybrid penalized averaging for combining parametric and non-parametric quantile forecasts when faced with a large number of predictors. This approach goes beyond the usual practice of combining conditional mean forecasts from parametric time series models with only a few predictors....

The paper proposes a method for forecasting conditional quantiles. In practice, one often does not know the "true" structure of the underlying conditional quantile function. In addition, we may have a potentially large number of the predictors. Mainly intended for such cases, we introduce a...
